Thanksgiving #1

Our first Thanksgiving consisted of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, my stuffed mushrooms and cookies, skyping with my family, food and games with Trevor's family, football and fun....

We have so much to be Thankful for.

Let the Christmas season (and Christmas music) officially begin....

Sunday Night Cookie Dough

When I was growing up, I would get what my mom lovingly referred to as "out of sorts" on Sunday night. I am sure a lot of people feel the same way as the weekend comes to an end and the work/school week is about to start. I chose to deal with my feelings by baking!

Even though I made brownies last Sunday...tonight was my amazing Kitchen Aid mixer's debut!

They turned out pretty good....

I think Trevor benefits from my little baking condition....

It Just Keeps Getting Better

The last couple weeks have been pretty eventful...Trevor went to a Sounders game with his friends, We had our good friend Megan over for dinner, we hosted a mini game night with some of our married friends Melanie and Ryan...but perhaps the two most notable were:

We rediscovered our love for Mario Kart and we made a very grown-up purchase at Pottery Barn...

Megs and Trevor getting after it!

That's Trevor in the middle.

Here is my husband putting our desk together....

Here is my contribution to the assembling of the desk....

It's been a good couple of weeks :)
